After knowing Shen Yue's purpose for going to sea, Xu Jiao began to worry, and promised Shen Yue to dispatch his armed men without ambiguity, but she was also worried.

The warship is not a whaling ship, Shen Yue did not install a stove on the warship, and dragged it back directly after whaling, instead of bringing back the blubber refinement.

If it goes well, one or two whales can be dragged back for processing, refining whale fat, and subsequent processing, whale meat can be processed into jerky and made into food; Offal, which can be used to make feed or fertilizer.

Shen Yue's plan was not told to anyone, and Xu Jiao only knew a small part.

Whaling is only for fat and meat, which is too low.

Now European whaling, only oil is taken, and whale meat is directly discarded, which is too wasteful, and European whale oil is only used to make top-quality candles.

Blublem was a key step in the re-emergence of the Shen family in Shen Yue's plan, and the key to regaining the status of a source of funds for the big landowners.

After discussing with Xu Jiao, Shen Yue gathered the sailors on the ship and asked them to prepare to go to sea.

After these water queens came over with the two thousand material boats, they have been raised by Shen Yue with good food and drink, and they have no training, and they have no chores to do, and they have money to do everything every day.

Most sailors were fortunate to have met such a host.

If he has a family, he took his wife and children.

Hearing Shen Yue say that he was about to go to sea, most people were happy. Going to sea means they get more silver.

The Shen family began to get busy, Shen Yue wanted to go to sea, and the Shen family naturally had to do a good job in logistics, even if they didn't organize the supply of goods, food and water, they had to prepare sufficiently.

Pickled meat, dried vegetables, rice, and grains that can be preserved at sea are all prepared. Utensils for water should also be prepared. These jobs are not unfamiliar to the people of the Shen Mansion, when the master went to sea, the Shen family had already experienced it once.

Yang Fu, the steward who stayed in the Shen family, was originally in charge of this kind of thing, and the master went to sea and did not return, so he was in charge, so he had nothing to do, and his previous status was low, so naturally there was also this reason.

Now that the young master has gone to sea, he has been upgraded to the steward of the Shen Mansion, and he has not shirked or handed it over to others to deal with, and he is personally responsible.

"Mother, the child really didn't do that businessless business. You also know the size of the rest of the maritime merchants. As soon as Shen Yue ordered to prepare things to go to sea, Yi'er, who was still unhappy with him, and threw away his eyes when he saw it, said that Mrs. was invited.

When I arrived, I realized that the old lady also thought that he was going to be a bandit who did no business, and she couldn't cry or laugh.

Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Yue in a daze: "Yue'er, the situation of the Shen family today is not caused by you, even if you are not in the trap of the Zhao family in the Chunfeng Building, our mother and mother will not be able to keep that inheritance...... Your father went to sea and did not return, most of them suffered misfortune, if you have three long and two short, how can your mother live? My mother would rather let you be an ordinary person than let you follow in your father's footsteps......"

As she spoke, tears flowed down her face.

In the end, he cried even more.

Damn.

Shen Yue knows, if you don't explain, absolutely not, the old lady is going to change the hexagram.

immediately knelt down with a puff and explained to Mrs. Shen: "Mother, the child is really not going to do that business. Even though there are 200 strong people, how can they fight those fierce merchant ships without training for a few days? The boy is going to seek out the Franc man, and to take credit from them the spices and ivory of the South Seas and the glass from Europa......"

went out to sea to hunt whales, Shen Yue didn't dare to say it.

Xu Jiao is a bit like a woman of his time, incompatible with this era, but she can meet Shen Yue's mate selection criteria, otherwise she will still resist her marriage with Xu Jiao.

Even a woman like Xu Jiao was terrified when she knew that he was going to hunt whales, and it was strange to talk about whaling in front of the old lady who believed in ghosts and gods, so that she was not scared of a heart attack.

"That Franc is cruel, burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, it is not easy to ...... with his peers" Mrs. Shen frowned, her face full of disbelief, "Besides, why do they owe you goods on credit?" ”

Mrs. Shen is not easy to fool.

One sentence asks the key.

Shen Yue was prepared, and immediately replied: "Mother, you don't understand the situation. The Francophone people are divided into Portugal and Spain, and the red-haired ghosts that appear now belong to the Spanish rule in the Franco-machine, and now the strength of the red-haired ghosts has grown, and they are going to turn against the water......"

Mrs. Shen was stunned.

And this inside story?

Francois is the general name of the Portuguese and Spaniards in the Ming Dynasty, and there are very few people who can figure it out, let alone a woman like Mrs. Shen who is in the deep boudoir.

Shen Yue immediately briefly explained the situation of Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands, Spain, like the Ming Dynasty, is already in decline, and the Netherlands, which has become strong, will naturally turn against the water.

"In this way, the Spain of the Franc machine is similar to my Daming, and there are many thieves in the country?" Mrs. Shen was somewhat sympathetic to Spain.

Shen Yue almost slapped his forehead, but finally agreed with the old lady's statement.

If he told the old lady that European independence would not pull the emperor off the horse, it would probably take a lot of time to explain.

Europe is not like the land of China, from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all countries want to be unified, and finally after Qin Shi Huang unified the whole country, he changed the dynasty, even if it was divided, it would eventually be unified.

The five dynasties and ten kingdoms were so chaotic, and they were finally unified by Zhao Kuangyin.

"Mother, the red-haired ghost wants to fight against the water, but now his strength is not enough, so he naturally doesn't dare to put up an anti-flag openly. In order to weaken the Spanish court, they were not allowed to trade with Spanish merchant ships everywhere, and without money, the Spanish court naturally could not suppress it, just like our court...... Find them to cooperate, they can't ask for it, we can sell their goods quickly......"

"In this way, wouldn't you offend the red-haired ghost? The red-haired ghost is powerful and comes with troops, how is it good? Mrs. Shen was worried again.

Shen Yue smiled even more happily, "Mother, we are the people of the Ming Dynasty!" The red-haired ghost came to attack, and his own court sailor cleaned it up. No matter how unbearable the imperial court is, the sailors have a large number of warships, and it is not a problem to clean them up. ”

In order to make the cheap old lady feel relieved, Shen Yue was full of nonsense, if the red-haired ghost came to commit it with the strength of the whole country, the Daming Sailor was really not an opponent.

People in these years still believe in the imperial court.

Mrs. Shen was relieved of her previous worries by Shen Yue's words, but she was not completely relieved.

Shen Yue didn't do that bookless business made her feel a lot relieved, doing business with the murderous Franco, without money or goods, can you easily pay on credit?

In case you lose your life......

Shen Yue left from the place where the sailor lived, and two people left after he left.

"Master, the Shen family child instructed that he would go to sea in three days." A dark-skinned sailor in his twenties appeared in front of Zhang Shanlu.

Zhang Shanlu didn't take Shen Yue seriously, and he didn't pay attention to it usually, and when he heard the news, he didn't pay much attention to it, "I know, go to the account room to get a reward of five taels of silver!" ”
